Mr. and Mrs. John Alligier, of Egnar, were in Monday bringing their 13-year-old daughter for medical attention. The girl was suffering from severe burns received one day last week in a gasoline explosion. The girl was drawing some gasoline from a car one evening, and a boy several feet away lit a match so that she could see whether the can was full. The father of the girl succeeded in smothering the blaze with his body and hands before the child was burned more seriously.
